First you have to find somewhere to put them. I would make a directory like /usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts/artwiz. Then, in xorg.conf, where you see all the other lines that have FontPath in them, add one more that sez FontPath "/usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts/artwiz/:unscaled". The :unscaled qualifier is important because blown-up fixed fonts make it look like someone drew on your screen with mascara.

I've tried this but no change thus far. Is there anything else I need to do to "fix" the changes? I remember there was a discussion on this concerning using TTF (Windows) fonts in Vector.

Are you using a theme that uses Artwiz fonts? That's important obviously. You could also try moving the line to the top of the list if there are other fonts that use the same name as the artwiz fonts (though I doubt it).

I will, but as yet I don't have a decent screenshot program. Puppy uses mtpaint to take screenshots with a 10 second delay, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet, so I'm downloading a program called scrot and plan to have a go with that.

Quick update; I wasn't able to get scrot to compile, because Vector doesn't seem to have a library called giblib.

However, Puppy has a utility called mtpaint snapshot, which is a .sh file and which I copied over to Vector;

#!/bin/sh

xmessage -center -bg "#ff00ff" -title "mtPaint screen snapshot utility" -buttons "" -timeout 8 "There will now be a pause of 10 seconds to allow you to adjustwindows as you wish, then a snapshot will be taken of entire screen.

Note, you can also take a snapshot of the main menu. Close this window,open the main menu to the desired layout, then wait until the 10 secondshas expired.

This window will disappear in 8 seconds from its creation." &

sleep 10exec mtpaint -s

and it works. The hardest thing is waiting for PhotoBucket to load when you're on dialup. Talk about watching paint dry....

I gave up in the end but I might try again from a public, broadband-enabled machine.

Hi GG. We were discussing the -box series of window managers (Fluxbox, Openbox and HackedBox), and I was having trouble getting the Artwiz font to display in the theme of trhe same name. Then hanumizzle asked for a screenshot, which I'm happy to provide once;

1/ I figure out how to produce one, and

2 / I get past the infernally long loading time of Photobucket, where I store the screenshot file I'm hoping to link to. I still haven't cracked that one yet.

Thanks for the advice on how to create a screenshot btw, I've used a utility copied over from another distro (Puppy) to do it this time but I may try your advice in the future.
